The four exclusive items for Mirage include a Legendary Metal Collector Banner Frame, Rare Number One Banner Pose, Rare Honorable Mention Badge, and Lifetime Wins Tracker.

Watching the Winter Circuit Playoffs live for one hour will award the Lifetime Wins Tracker, while watching for two hours will award the Honorable Mention Badge. Meanwhile, the reward for watching the broadcast for three hours is the Number One Banner Pose. Finally, accumulating four hours of watch-time will unlock the ultimate reward, a legendary Metal Collector Banner Frame.

For starters, users require a Twitch account and an EA account. They need to have both these accounts linked before watching the eligible broadcasts. Additionally, those playing on a console need to link their applicable platform’s account to their EA account.

The next step for users is to access their Twitch account and then submitting the details of their EA account on the Connect with Twitch screen. Once linking both accounts is complete, users will become eligible for the drops. After that, all one needs to do is tune into the live broadcast of ALGS Winter Circuit Playoffs and watch the action unfold.

A blog on EA’s website details how this entire process works. All in all, watching the best regional teams in Apex Legends esports compete against each other and receiving unique in-game rewards for it, makes for a win-win situation.
